Chemical Structure

Medroxyprogesterone Impurity 12 CAS 61345-71-9 chemical structure

Description

Under current pharmacopoeial and regulatory frameworks, quality-control requirements for this class of reference material explicitly involve the control of targets including Medroxyprogesterone Impurity 12.

As a process- or degradation-related impurity, Medroxyprogesterone Impurity 12 (CAS 61345-71-9, C23H30O5) is essential for impurity profiling, related-substances testing, and forced-degradation studies in pharmaceutical development.

Owing to a flavonoid core, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, Medroxyprogesterone Impurity 12 is typically pale yellow to yellow crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 386.48 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The aromatic system may exhibit native fluorescence, enabling detection with a fluorescence detector (FLD).

This reference standard supports related-substances testing and method development in line with ICH Q3A/Q3B guidance on impurity control, and is suitable for system suitability testing and forced-degradation studies.

CATO manufactures Medroxyprogesterone Impurity 12 under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
